THE DUMBEST KID IN THE WORLD
A young boy enters the barber shop and the barber whispers to his customer,
"This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it
to you."
The barber puts a dollar bill in one hand and two quarters in the other, then
calls the boy over and asks, "Which do you want, son?"
The boy takes the quarters and leaves. "What did I tell
you?" said the barber. "That
kid never learns!"
Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of the
ice cream store. "Hey, son! May I ask you a question? Why did you take the quarters instead of the
dollar bill?"
The boy licked his cone and replied, "Because the day I
take the dollar, the
game's over."
